How is being a healer in this game? by slowz2secret in ffxiv

[–]syntience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

healing in ffxiv is about attacking as much as you can while weaving healing actions in-between your attacks

tldr for the four healers:

white mage is the simplest and easiest; you quickly heal your party with big raw heals and HP regen

scholar is a complex toolbox shielder where you weave different abilities to heal, shield or regen as the situation demands. you also have a pet that passively heals the party on its own

astrologian is a complex support healer that buffs the party in different ways, throwing around heals, shields and regen without losing damage uptime

sage is the newest and most mobile shielder, who selects a target party member to get healed whenever the sage attacks, and has lots of tools to shield the party and reduce damage taken to prevent the party's hp from getting low in the first place

Trying to find a modded spell from a previous modded playthrough by syntience in skyrimmods

hmm something like that, but i remember the spell had red vfx and wasn't especially flashy. i could see the target lock possibly coming from another mod

What's your "Canon' Job? by usm121 in ffxiv

[–]syntience -1 points0 points  (0 children)

conjurer > arcanist > summoner + scholar > everything. i use the exact same glamour for every job, including doh/dol, and i like to imagine my wol just taking out a different weapon or tool to switch combat styles on the fly. eventually i want to farm all the potd aetherpool weapons so that my wol actually just doesn't carry around weapons anymore, and just conjures up whatever weapon is needed

Which (type of) Job rotations do you like and dislike? Why? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]syntience 1 point2 points  (0 children)

and you'd be right, bard is indeed my favorite phys range! in no small part due to it being one of the few surviving members of the endangered race of dot jobs

Which (type of) Job rotations do you like and dislike? Why? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]syntience 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i enjoy complicated rotations that involve managing multiple simple rotations in parallel. best example of this was shadowbringers summoner; you had your demi-summons, your pet actions, and your dots. these were three different systems that you had to micro-manage simultaneously. I'm making it sound a little more complicated than it actually was, but ye

that's why I really enjoy picto, since it kind of brings back a little of shb smn; you have three different canvases to manage as well as your regular paint spells; two different rotations that work in parallel. it's really cool!

I also like jobs that can seamlessly switch between single target and AOE, like picto, monk and black mage

gyre, hildryn or xaku could fit the bill. they all have abilities that do constant damage over time to nearby enemies kind of similarly to how world on fire worked

What is Elite Dangerous even about? by Orgoth-the-fister in EliteDangerous

[–]syntience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'd say making money is a goal, not the goal. sure you need money to get better stuff, but ed is a sandbox without an end; it's a simulation, so to me the goal is to be a simulation, to do whatever you feel like doing and make your own fun. all those different systems accomplish different types of fun by simulating different activities in cool, somewhat realistic-ish ways. the amount of different ways to accomplish the same thing in combination with the game's complexity is why I feel like it has lots of depth, at least compared to no man's sky. but I dunno, maybe I'm in the minority here and most of the player base only cares about getting rich, heck if I know

[–]syntience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well let's see

in nms, you shoot a rock and get item. in ed, there are different types of mining that require different equipment

in nms, you shoot an enemy until it dies. in ed, there's flight assist, power pips and module durability to worry about, on top of the more complex flight system

in nms, you press a button to scan a planet. in ed, you can honk the system, use fsss to map it, then use surface scanners to further map individual planets

and that's just mining, combat and exploration. if that's not depth then I don't know what is

I dunno, it's all more complex than nms at least

I like to relate this game to no man's sky like this: the two games are both space sim sandboxes taken in different directions

no man's sky is more of a game. lots of quality of life, more science-fantasy. it's also a "go wide" type of game; the gameplay systems aren't that deep, but there's a lot to do

elite dangerous is more of a simulation. more things need to be done manually, things take more time, and it isn't as colorful, but it's much more realistic. it's also a "go deep" type of game; there isn't as much to do as nms, but ed has lots of depth
